What are blood clots?
Thrombosis UK, a charity which aims to raise awareness about blood clots, says they can be fatal even if 'treated appropriately'.
They say blood clots, or venous thromboembolisms (VTE), are the leading cause of preventable deaths in hospital.
Between 55 to 60 per cent of cases occur during or following hospitalisation.
Treatment involves immediate infusions of healthy antibodies, to stop the internal misfiring that causes the life-threatening condition.
Blood thinners are also given to treat the clots and prevent any new ones occurring – though in some cases, surgery is necessary.
NHS figures have shown that 14,846 people aged 19 or over died in England from a VTE, blockage of a vein caused by a blood clot, in 2021-2022 – up from 12,457 two years earlier.

'Obviously flying home from Dubai I was on the plane for like nearly eight hours… I didn't drink like hardly any water.
'You know when you're in mum mode and you're just not really thinking like you're trying to tame your child.
'I was in so much pain, like it was in the back of my knee, so so strong. Like it didn't feel like a dead leg, it was like a sharp stabbing pain…
'Then it's moving down into my calf, into my ankle, into my foot, like my whole calf is just in so much pain.'
'I was in A&E for absolutely hours. It was absolutely packed, it was such a sad environment, so many poorly people.'
But after waiting for four hours in A&E for a blood test, Molly was told she needed to wait another hour and then a further three for the results to see a doctor.
Worried about not getting back to take Bambi to nursery in the morning, Molly went back home.
She said: 'I need to leave. Like I can't stay here any longer… We had like nothing with us this morning.'
The next day, Friday morning, Molly woke up with a lot less pain until she was hit with a wave ofdizziness, nausea, and shortness of breath later that afternoon.
She said: 'I had this awful awful like dizzy spell where the room was spinning. I thought I was going to vomit…
'I had this really really funny time where I was like I couldn't breathe properly… almost like a bit of a panic attack but like it was just horrible.'

Rushing back to hospital, Molly went back to the hospital to get a full round of tests - which came back clear.
She continued: 'They said that I'm completely fine, like all my vitals… my heart rate, blood test, everything was absolutely fine.
'Like there was nothing that showed them any sort of concern or anything about a blood clot.'
Molly later stressed to her fans the importance of taking blood clots and health seriously.
'It needs to be taken so much more seriously because it can happen to anyone at any age.
'Maybe I had one, maybe I didn't. I read that blood clots can disperse by themselves and it's not always going to be sinister.
'I do think it's important to share it because you never really think it's going to happen to you.
'I was convinced I had one but the doctors fully checked me over and said I was fine.'
'I'm just happy to be feeling a lot better now. It does just feel like a bad dream what happened last night, so strange', she added.
